(westernkansasnews.com) Former Governors Mark Hayden and John Carlin have joined a group called Kansans for Fair Courts. Their goal to keep the five State Supreme Court Justices who face a retention vote this November. Governor Hayden tells us what interests are putting this issue before the voters.

 

 

Governor Carlin is concerned what might result if voters are unsuccessful in retaining these justices.
